Answer: Option (d) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

A ketone is an organic functional group that contains a carbon and oxygen atom bonded together through a double bond, that is, C=O.

For example, acetone $CH_{3}-CO-CH_{3}$ is a ketone.

Whereas a hydrocodone is a drug which is used to relieve from moderate to sever pain.It is mostly combined with other drugs and resulting in a chemical formula $C_{18}H_{21}NO_{3}.C_{4}H_{6}O_{6}$ .

A camphor is a volatile white color substance with chemical formula $C_{10}H_{16}O$ . It has aromatic smell and its taste is bitter.

A menthone is also an organic compound with chemical formula $C_{10}H_{18}O$ .

Thus, we can conclude that out of the given options the simplest ketone used as an organic solvent is acetone.

How many moles of sulfur are present in 5 moles of h2so4?.

dusya [7]

Answer:

One mole of sulfuric acid consists of one mole of sulphur.

Explanation:

This is because in the molecule of sulfuric acid there is only one atom of sulphur that is present. As a result of this since in case of one mole of sulfuric acid there should be only one 1 mole of sulphur.

According to the molar concept one mole of sulphur means 6.023 x10^ 23 atoms of sulphur is present in one complete mole of sulfuric acid. in addition to this the molecule also consists of 2 moles of hydrogen and 4 moles of oxygen in 1 mole of sulfuric acid
